Yes! I found it, Thank you LarryP.
That is an interesting way they do it.
Thanks again![;)]

I'm glad you found it. Hey, I did the same thing at first. I was distraught over not finding the manuals and a guy in a forum told me where they are. So I just passed it on. [;)]

Man, Empire at War Gold and Saints Row 2 are tempting today...

It's only ten bucks (not sure what that is over there)!

Download is real slow.. been going for awhile on my Son's computer very slow...

Star Wars Empire Gold, I downloaded very quickly!

Also if you look in the folder you installed steam into, find a folder named steamapps, open it, and then open the folder called 'common' you will see the folders of the games you have installed. Usually there is a pdf file of the manul in each games folder.

Yeah just noticed Borderlands in £7 - was going to pick it up - but too many games. Have stopped myself right now. It's all well and good having all these bargains on my drive - but I won't play them in the future, because something new and exciting (aalthough ultimately the same) will be released and I'll buy those.

I think I need to slow down now and just a) tally up what I've spent and b) play some of the games I have. [:D]

You all do realize that you can just right click on a game title and click 'view player manual' to view the manual? A lot easier than some of the methods I see here. [:)]

No I did not know this. Thanks for pointing it out. After looking into this, I noticed that some of my games had it and some didn't.[&:]
But at least it is another option to check.
Thanks

Jumped on Saints Rows 2 yesterday. Nothing grabbing my attention today...the ones I'm interested in, I already own. [:)] One more day and then the wallet can rest.

I've made an INSANE amount of purchases, with no time enough to play them all. DAMN YOU, Steam![:D]

I used to hate Steam and even posted such. Then I saw their prices several months ago when they had a sale and I gave them another try. I have spent about $150 this year at Steam and I have around 35 excellent new games. I'm good to go for some time now... lets see... when's the next sale... [:D]

I've just joined the "I hate Steam" league; just waiting on mjy membership number, I understand its five to six digits.

~Old computer died.[&:]
~Bought glossy new computer[:D]
~Steam doesn't recognise my user name, email, password or even my frigging secret question answer[:@]

~The folks at steam will not answer a question unless the user has logged in... which means... can anyone say catch 2 frigging 2?

Shouldn't make any difference what computer it is. That's the whole point of Steam; you sure you're putting in the right login and password?

I've got Steam on three different PC's. However, I've read some horror stories when it comes to their customer support. Fortunately I have only had to deal with them once and it was not good.
